switching it up

Black jacket: H&M Hoodie: Target T-shirt: from a Dave Matthews Band concert Skinnies: Forever 21 Headband: Nordstrom (Shoes and Earrings shown below)

Well, I totally cut off my shoes in this photo (yet again, haha) and you can't see my earrings. So I took the close-ups featured below!

Earrings: New Look (London) Shoes: Vans

My outfit today is much more casual than yesterday. I wore my fave baggy-ish concert tee with skinny jeans and sneakers and layered jackets for added warmth. I switched up yesterday's preppy accessories, going from a braided belt and diamond studs to dangy leaf earrings and a hippie headband.

The clouds and light rain plus this jacket combo remind me of my weekend in Ireland last summer. I miss it so much - in class all I could think about was wanting Shepherd's Pie, fish, or potatoes with just a little bit of Guinness (because too much makes me fall asleep) for dinner.

Good thing the groceries I have will only make smoothies or grilled cheese! (Note to self: get more Irish-like food next time at Safeway to anticipate days like this).

rainy days

Jeans and Tank: Forever 21 Flannel Shirt: Splendid Jacket: from a leather market in Florence, Italy

Oops, I accidentally cut my shoes out of the picture - I was wearing white lace-up Vans! I also decided to take today's outfit photo in my room instead of the dining/family room of my apartment. I still would love to take photos outside, but as I said before, I don't have much extra time.

Taking the photo in my room also allowed me to play around with the edits - I couldn't do much with the lighting and floor color with my previous ones! I'll probably continue to do my outfit posts in here for a while.

It rained this morning, so I wore this fantastic leather jacket that I got when I studied in Italy this summer. It hasn't gotten much wear yet because of the heat, but since it is waterproof (and fireproof apparently, according to the salesman), I pulled it out of my closet today. It also has a detachable hood...so basically it's the perfect jacket for me with weather conditions - warm, waterproof, has a hood to protect my hair in rain/snow, AND it's fashionable. I like the contrast of the black with the dark green of the flannel and pop of white.

So since it rained today ... can I get these yet? ;)
